Northland is a development-stage mining company with a portfolio of iron
ore projects in northern Sweden and Finland. The Company's Kaunisvaara
Project will initially exploit two magnetite iron ore deposits in
Sweden. The process will yield a high-grade, high-quality magnetite iron
concentrate. The construction of the Kaunisvaara project in Sweden is
well underway and mining is expected to start in the fourth quarter of
2012. Northland has entered into off-take contracts for the entire
production from Kaunisvaara over the next seven to ten years. The
Company is also preparing a Definitive Feasibility Study ("DFS") for its
Hannukainen Iron Oxide Copper Gold ("IOCG") Project in Kolari, northern
Finland and for its Pellivuoma deposit 15 km from the Kaunisvaara
process pla
